I had just lifted the bag containing the magic weapon, and I was startled by Master's words, and as soon as I let go of my two hands, the bag fell on the seat.

"It's not like there's... Living people living in it? ”

"Hmm." Master said.

To say the same, in that house, the yard is messy, and no one pulls out the grass in the backyard vegetable patch. I think it's because the old man is too lazy to take care of the house, so he doesn't care too much. At this moment, after listening to Master's words, and thinking about the mansion again, I feel cold all over...

"Could it be that ... That old man is not a living person? I said.

The master was noncommittal, but said to me, "Think about it, there is something wrong with that old man. ”

"Something is wrong..."

I muttered to myself, opening the door to see him, to coming out of his house, the whole process, combing through in my heart... The old man is condescending to us, because he heard that I brought something, that person is very greedy, and likes to brag, many people have this kind of shortcoming...

"No... Could it be... Not long after his daughter died, he seemed to be fine, as if he wasn't sad... Is this it? I looked at Master, "I don't think that's right..."

"Nope." Master said, "That old man has never had a sip of tea from beginning to end. ”

"yes..."

I suddenly remembered that this was indeed the case, that old man, at that time, poured a total of three people's tea, and Master and I drank it, but his cup never moved...

"Could it be that that old man is like Boss Wang at the beginning, and he will still move after he dies?" I asked.

"It's hard to say, anyway, I feel that the person is dead, but I don't know why, I can't see it from the appearance at all, and I can't sense it from the aura..."

Master told me that from the moment he entered the house, he had a faint feeling as if something was wrong. By looking at the whole house and sensing the aura, Master found that the house did not look like there were living people living in it. So, he focused all his attention on the old man... First noticed that he didn't drink tea, and later, when I was in Xiao Nan's bedroom, when I lit the three sticks of incense, the incense floated to Lao Biao, Master noticed that the old man closed his eyes and inhaled greedily with his nose, and when he opened his eyes, Master found that his eyes were empty... And then there is the back, the master urged the old man to dig up the soil under the locust tree, in addition to wanting to see if there is 'charcoal' in the soil, there is another reason, that is, to test the old part... When the old man was digging the soil, the master noticed that the sleeves of his coat were floating slightly in the direction of the locust tree, but due to the barrier of the wall, there was no wind in the locust tree at all...

The more I listened, the more furious my heart became.

"The locust tree, the ghost of the wood, the locust tree has an attraction to the souls of the dead... I was sure that the old man was dead, and his soul was separated from his body and became a dead soul, and it was the dead soul that lived in the body. The reason why the sleeves floated was due to the power of the locust tree to absorb his soul..."

I raised my hand and wiped the cold sweat from my head.

"I'm afraid I'll scare you, so I haven't told you..."Master looked at his watch, "It's almost, Leng'er, let's go..."

The moon was bright that night, and when I looked up, there seemed to be something like a silver veil floating in the sky above the village. Behind the corner of the house, there are many shadows, the grass is swaying by the bleak night wind, coupled with the sound of some unknown insects, giving people a ghostly feeling...

Along the white village road illuminated by the moonlight, we came to the door of the old side. Looking at the word 'mourning' on the white flower posted on the courtyard gate, I swallowed a mouthful of saliva, although there was a master by my side, but my heart was still a little tight...

The courtyard door was not locked, and the inside was not inserted, so the master stretched out his hand and pushed it open. Waving his hand at me, Master walked in first, and the courtyard was empty. I stiffened my head and followed Master towards the hall. Master is very calm, his steps are not hurried or slow, and he feels that even if the sky falls, he has a way to deal with it.

Pushing the door into the house, I reached out and pulled the light rope at the door, but the light was not on at all. Master took out the flashlight he had brought with him and turned it on, and under the light of the flashlight, I saw that the things I had brought during the day were still on the table, and on the small table against the wall, the teapot and tea bowl had not been confiscated, and the three tea bowls, one of which was full of water, was the old one...

This hall is connected to the bedroom on the side, and when the curtain is lifted to the bedroom, the quilt is rolled up, and no one sleeps on the bed. I looked at Master, and saw Master calmly scanning the bedroom.

"Leng'er, let's go, let's go to the kitchen..."

In feng shui, there is a saying that 'the mountain is in charge of the people, and the water is the main wealth', and when you look at the yang house, you can look at the family's fortune and look at the 'water'. As mentioned earlier, water is divided into water and water, Qimen looks at water, looks at the kitchen, and as for water, it looks at the bathroom. The same is true for rural houses. Depending on the financial situation of the family, it depends on the location of the kitchen and toilet, and the layout... As the saying goes, if a large family goes out at the same time and encounters an accident, in the case of uncertainty about their life and death, the feng shui master with higher skills can tell through the wealth in the family's family, whether they are dead or alive, if they are all dead, then the wealth is gone... Some friends may ask, if the wealth is gone, won't the house be ruined? Wealth follows people, and when a different family lives, there will be new wealth...

Out of the bedroom in the front yard, Master and I went to the kitchen of this old home. Pushing the door in, I felt that the kitchen was cold, the roof beams were dark with oil smoke, and the stove was covered with a thin layer of dust...

I dusted my hands, put them under my nose and sniffed them, then reached down and lifted the lid. I saw that the bottom of the pot was covered with a layer of dry rust, and it looked like it hadn't been cooked for some days...

"Master," I said nervously in a low voice.

Master waved his hand at me, then took out the compass in his bag, and after looking at the layout of the whole kitchen, he stared at the compass and walked towards the 'Qian' position in this kitchen, which is the northwest position in the gossip the day after tomorrow.

I followed Master to the northwest corner of the kitchen, and Master said, "This is where this family's fortune is located..."

I said in my heart, no wonder this old partiality family looks so poor, the fortune is in the northwest, and he always drinks the northwest wind, can he be rich? … The Master squatted down and measured with his thumb and middle finger from the base of the wall in the northwest corner, and when he reached the fifth measurement, the Master stopped and used a cinnabar pen to point at the crack in the brick where his thumb was pressing.

"This is it."

After speaking, the master took out a piece of rune paper and pasted it in that position, then took out a silver needle, pointed at the rune paper with a sword, and said something in his mouth, and suddenly took off the rune paper, and the master stabbed the cinnabar point, that is, the brick crack, and something strange happened... The brick joint is obviously quite wide, and small nails can be inserted, but the silver needle is not inserted, but bent...

"The entrance to the wealth is closed, Leng Er goes, grab a handful of firewood ashes, and follow me to the toilet..."

There was ash under the stove, and I grabbed a handful. When I came to the toilet, Master pointed to the wall in the southeast corner and said, "Sprinkle the ashes there."

I poured the ashes down the wall, and the master pinched the rune paper that he had used before, approached the corner of the wall, shook the words a few times, and threw it to the ground, and the rune paper 'banged' and burned. Master turned off the flashlight, and under the light of the fire, I saw a fist-sized hole in the corner of the wall, flickering...

Master got up and said, "The fortune of this family has run away, and the old man is indeed dead..."

"That's... So where did the old man go when he was not at home? ”

Master thought about it and shook his head, "Leng'er, let's go, let's go to the backyard and have a look." ”

When I got to the backyard, I looked at the grass in the vegetable patch, then at the old locust tree, and gently lifted the zipper of my coat.

The bedroom of 'Xiao Nan' in the backyard, after Lao Biao opened the door during the day, it was not locked again, and a gap flashed.

When we entered the house, Master and I rummaged through the cabinets. In this Xiao Nan's cabinet, in addition to some clothes, there are some bedding. I rummaged through it and found nothing. I sat on the bed, panting for air. His eyes moved around and landed on the table at the head of the bed, that is, the table where Xiao Nan's photo frame was placed. Looking at the person in the photo, I said to myself, this girl is not bad, if she is in the countryside, she should be able to find a good in-law, but unfortunately she is willing to fall, which is really sad...

Thinking of this, I shook my head, and suddenly, I had a strange feeling, and hurriedly stared at the photo, to be precise, at the two eyes of Xiao Nan in the photo... In the photo, this Xiao Nan's eyes are not staring at the front, but leaning to the side slightly, looking behind her gaze, I saw the window, not far from the window, is the locust tree...

I felt a 'chuckle' in my heart, how could it be so coincidental? … Suddenly, I had an unbelievable thought, if the 'Xiao Nan' in the photo is thinking, then 'she' must have seen the truth, the truth of how she hung herself from that tree...

"Leng'er, what are you doing?"

"Huh?" I came back to my senses, "Master, look at this picture..."

Master stared at him for about a minute, and from his expression, nothing could be seen.

When he got up, I told Master about my strange idea.

"It should be said the other way around." Master said.

"Oh?"

"Xiao Nan, who was hanging from the tree, saw this in the photo through the window, Leng Er, we misjudged before..."

"How?"

"Xiao Nan was hanged, and she died very painfully, when she died, through her eyes, she injected her thoughts into this photo, that is, this photo, with her thoughts. I think that the 'Xiao Nan' in the photo, the eyes should not have been like this, it was her strong thoughts before she died, which made it change..."

I once read a report that there was a couple of couples, the boy died in an emergency, and the girl missed each other, and every day they talked to a stone that they picked up on the beach on their last date, and over time, the stone slowly changed shape... It is said that a person's focused, intense thoughts can change things...

"This—" I stared at the picture in amazement.

"Leng'er."

"Huh?"

"Let's find a way to cast a spell to bring Xiao Nan's thoughts out of this photo, and see what she was thinking before she died..."
